"Twice" and "Two times"
Hi there. I noticed you recently edited Eltro information rate changer by ch anging "passing the actor's voice through the Eltro two times" to "passing the actor's voice through the Eltro twice". From your past contributions, I suspect you might be a Brit, same as me, and have an interest in improving use of English. FYI, the previous wording was acceptable American English: Americans tend to use "one time, two times", where Brits would use "once, twice". "Thrice" is rare for everyone.

It's not clear whether the article should use American English or British English so I'm not going to undo your amendment, but thought you mght be interested to know.

Best wishes. Masato.harada (talk) 07:58, 16 June 2023 (UTC)


 * I am indeed British. I am surprised to learn that's acceptable American English; I agree the article isn't obviously in British or American English. I'll leave it as-is. If someone cares enough to change it back, good luck to them. JohnGDallman (talk) 18:56, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
